    You need an ambitious financial plan to get a YES from investors❗️ Here are 5 points to consider and our financial model template. 👇 Looking at a start-up's financials is part of the investment decision process. It's not about the numbers themselves. It's about the conclusions, which provide a lot of insight into a founder's thinking about the business and growth. And this is a realistic reason for an investor to say no if the numbers are not ambitious enough or do not make sense! Here is what I look for in pre-seed B2B Saas startups: 👉Revenue growth: - Year 1: Minimal to moderate revenue. Focus on product development and market validation. Growth: 0% to 100% - Year 2: Early growth. Optimise product-market fit. Growth: 100% to 300% - Year 3: High growth. Scale the business. Growth: 200% to 500 👉 Total burn: - Keep burn low before finding product-market fit - Match burn to your runway 👉Next funding rounds: - Match fundraising volume to revenue, burn and growth ambitions - Plan for 12-18 month runway 👉 Headcount & salaries: - Build your team strategically and think about hiring and onboarding times - Calculate realistic salaries for all levels & positions - Ensure founder salaries cover living costs but are not the highest in the team 👉 Business model: - Make sure the revenue trajectory matches your business model - Think about sales circles, contract values and churn rates Stay away from pessimistic cases and stick to optimistic scenarios! We at ROI VENTURES invest into the future potential of your startup and into your vision, which needs to be reflected in the numbers. Investors know that it's usually not completely realistic, but it shows ambition. 📈 At EWOR we have developed a financial planning template for pre-seed B2B SaaS companies. 👇 Comment financial planning and I will send it to you. 👇 #startups #fundraising #financials

    Notion pages vs. pitch decks: What works better for fundraising? 🤔 I see a lot of founders raising with notion pages instead of pitch decks. Especially experienced ones. Why? 👉 Creating a deck takes time and design skills. Notion is easier. 👉 You can add extra information, links, product demos, etc. 👉Easy to update and improve. No design changes needed. 👉 Investors can easily find the info they need and copy it to their internal DD page. But there are downsides: 👉 Pitch decks can have great graphics and tell a story. 👉 Notion pages are easy to share but lack email tracking. 👉 Some investors may see it as lazy or unprofessional. It's important to balance the information on your Notion Page. Too much can be overwhelming and it should not be a full data room. At EWOR we have created a template Notion Page. You can use it with or instead of your deck. Comment "Notion Page" and I'll send it to you. 🙌 Special thanks to Niklas Benesch & Lian Boerma. What do you prefer? #startups #venturecapital #investments

    Magic has raised a total of $465 million so far, mostly from US investors obviously. Meet Eric Steinberger and Sebastian De Ro, the brains behind the AI startup. Magic’s AI can write its own code, bringing us closer to Artificial General Intelligence (AGI). While the Seed ($5M) & Series A ($23M) had a small participation from European investors. In the Series B ($117M) & Series C ($320M), US investors dominate. 💸 ROI VENTURES is proud to have been one of Magic's first backers. It is worth noting that all 4 funding rounds took place within 2 years, with a team of 23 people. 📈 Despite the lack of growth funding in Europe, deeptech AI companies like Magic are relying on partnerships with big cloud providers like Google. Another example of this trend is Mistral, which has also secured backing from US investors and collaborates with both Microsoft and Google. It is simply not possible to build a foundational AI model without huge funding, partnerships and access to talent. Aleph Alpha, a German promising AI company, recently stepped back from the race due to high costs and regulatory uncertainty. 😬 But there are also many startups working on solutions at the application layer. And we need to find ways to fund their growth in Europe. The positive side? European leaders are increasingly recognizing the importance of venture capital. The recent appointment of a Startup Commissioner offer hope for future European tech growth. Lastly, I’m grateful to see that Magic’s story and the broader discussion about Europe’s innovation gap made it to Die Presse am Sonntag by Susanne Bickel & David Freudenthaler. 🙌 #innovation #startups #venturecapital

    These are the 3 reasons why we don't invest in health startups! 🏥 At ROI VENTURES, our focus is on pre-seed B2B SaaS companies. But you might be wondering why we clearly stay away from investing in healthcare startups. 🤔 Here are the top 3 reasons: 1️⃣ Lack of Customer Network: We excel in sectors such as manufacturing, banking and construction and can support our portfolio with introductions to potential clients. Our network in healthcare is limited, making it difficult to provide the same value. 2️⃣ Time-consuming Assessment: Healthcare startups require deep market knowledge and regulatory expertise. This makes our initial assessment lengthy and complex. We also lack a network of experts in this area. Having worked in a health deep tech VC myself, I know how important it is to have references and market insights. 3️⃣ Need for Focus: We already have a broad investment focus. Adding health would spread us too thin. It's important to build clusters and synergies within our portfolio. 🎯 Niklas, Patrick, Julian, Marco and I believe in focusing on what we do best. There are excellent health-focused investors out there who can provide the right support and expertise. The investment focus of angels like us is also likely to change over time. As markets change, we learn along the way and there are always exciting new technologies. 💫 #venturecapital #investing #startups

    Investment in space startups is on the rise, and we're excited to be a part of it. 🚀 This week we visited the office of our portfolio company GATE Space, organized by the FUTURE MC. GATE Space is revolutionizing mobility in space. Their plug-and-play mobility solution, the GATE Jetpack, turns satellites into fast and agile assets in space. We invest in start-ups with disruptive technologies, and space is a pioneering sector. The key driver for our investment? The exceptional team and the perfect timing with their US market entry. 🌟 Here's why the space sector is exciting for investors: 👉 High growth opportunities: Satellite communications, space logistics, resource extraction and space tourism are booming.  👉 Technological advances: Investments in space are driving advances in robotics, AI, and materials science.  👉 Long-term potential: Imagine mining asteroids for resources or colonizing other planets! But it's not all smooth sailing. Here are some challenges: 👉 High capital intensity: Space projects require massive investments in R&D and infrastructure.  👉 Slow returns: Patience is key, as profitability can take years.  👉 Technological and regulatory risks: Complex technical challenges and regulatory approvals can lead to losses. We are excited to see where GATE Space takes us next! 💫 Thanks Clemens Weisgram, Kambis Kohansal Vajargah, Florian Schirg for the insightful discussion. #venturecapital #startups #spacetech

    #GenAI is facing some early headwinds because evidence of true business value has been lacking. Our next release is an antidote to this. Thanks for following the journey! TL;DR: OriginAI has successfully used it's hashtag #GenAI platform to generate and deploy a scrap inventory application for Crevel Europe Gmbh. The software was created using a business-language (non technical) prompt and without a single developer touching the code. The journey to real business value from hashtag #GenAI: Glancing at the current stock prices of key AI companies like NVIDIA might suggest the world is experiencing its first wave of skepticism towards GenAI. As someone who spends the majority of their working time with frontier AI models from OpenAI, Anthropic and others, I find this perspective a bit puzzling. After all, AI—especially Generative AI—is still in its infancy, and many services, like Origin, that demonstrate real value, are still at seed stage and need time to grow. It's ridiculous to judge the future of the market solely on the current outputs. In truth, we're on the brink of a transformation in how we work and live—on a scale comparable to the Internet or the Industrial Revolution (and I don't use those examples lightly). The impact will be enormous. I can understand the skepticism, though. Beyond chatbots like GPT, the tangible business value of GenAI can seem elusive. Where are the profits, aside from cloud hosting providers and chip makers? In Origin's wheelhouse (GenAI code and software generation) we see that there's a strong focus on software engineering benchmarks as a sign of progress - which is unfortunate, as whilst an AI scoring 30% on an academic set of coding challenges is cool, it isn't the kind of actual business value the world is looking for. That’s why I’m especially excited about our latest release, which represents a significant step forward. In this video, you’ll see Origin’s first beta customer, Crevel Europe, and the scrap inventory management application that Origin generated and deployed—all without a single developer ever touching the code. We're on a bit of a mission now: using Origin to tackle the hundreds of workflow challenges every business faces. If you or a business you know wants to get involved, you can sign up your business for our beta cohort via the Origin Idea Forge—built by Origin, of course: https://lnkd.in/ezBWkywy Or of course.. just send us a message!
